The Redwood Theatre
1300 Gerrard St East

Willkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome…

to Cabaret to Modern Day Following up their romp from last season’s Golden Age Musical Theatre Show “June is Bustin’ Out All Over” Opera Revue will now dazzle you with hits from all your favourites from the 1970’s and beyond. We might have access to puppets and some flying monkeys.

Watch us tap dance around performance rights laws as we take a swipe at the Mirvish Empire downtown and bring Broadway back to the East End. So far this season Opera Revue has been delighting you with approachable yet exotic operas presented in a host of languages, Italian, French, and German along with a few Slavic morsels. But now come and hear “the band” bantering back in their mother tongue. Except for Claire and her endearing Kiwi Speak.

Tunes from the smash hits Les Mis, Phantom of the Opera (which is not an opera for the love of god), Wicked, and more? (we’re not 100% sure, mostly cause we still need to nail down that one guest….you know who you are…stop ducking our calls….did we mention puppets?!)

Very special guests to be announced methodically and politically because we want a shot at a Rubies nomination and maybe a Tony while we’re at it, staying humble and all that jazz.
